Fox cuts 'Mulaney' order to 13 episodes

EW has confirmed that the network has cut its initial 16-episode order to 13 episodes, wrapping production just in time before starting work on its 14th episode.

This comes at a reversal of the network’s order of an additional 10 episodes of the series back in spring. The show premiered to low ratings and mixed reviews, with 2.3 million viewers and a 1.0 in the 18-49 demographic—a 50 percent drop from its lead-in, Family Guy. The following week maintained around the same numbers, with a tick upwards to 1.1 in the 18-49 demographic.

The show will continue to air in its 9:30 p.m. Sunday night timeslot after Family Guy.
